How to Make Nutmeg Rolls
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Gradually beat in 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until well combined. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the dough into 14 equal portions.
- On a lightly sugared surface, roll each portion into a 12-inch long roll, approximately ½ inch wide.
- Cut each roll into 2-inch lengths and place them on a greased baking sheet.
- Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on a wire rack.
- While the cookies cool, prepare the glaze.
- **Glaze Preparation:** Cream together ¼ cup (½ stick) softened butter and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Add 1 teaspoon rum extract and gradually beat in 1 cup powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add more powdered sugar, if needed, to reach desired consistency.
- Once the cookies have completely cooled, spread the glaze over each cookie.
